Chapter 65 Ranger
"Sanniang, Sanniang, there are many knights outside. They want to escort us to Lingnan."
"Those knights said that they had heard about the deeds of the Minister of the Central Secretariat and were deeply moved, so they acted out of righteousness!"
"...Although these people are of humble origins, they are all chivalrous and courageous."
The maids were busy going in and out, chattering about this all the time.
Gu Qingcheng listened with a smile, "They are all chivalrous men!" But they are also smarter.
Gu Qingcheng admitted that her heart was far from being as simple and pure as those little maids.
She thinks about things, both good and bad.
Take the case of the Ranger, for example.
When the little maid heard the knights gathering outside and shouting "Lord You'an is a loyal and honest man who was exiled for crying out for injustice. We have come here to escort him," she would surely be overwhelmed with emotion and filled with gratitude.
They were proud of their masters and their reputation for loyalty spread throughout the world, so much so that even the knights in the market came to help.
They also thanked Youxiaer for his loyalty and courage.
As for Gu Qingcheng, she would indeed think of what the little maid thought of, but she would also think of -
These rangers must have their own little ideas for standing up.
Gu Heng, Gu Youan, son of the Wujun Gu family, was the Secretary of the Southern Dynasty. He became famous when he was young and was well-known at home and abroad! Now he was framed and exiled to Lingnan. If there is another setback during his exile, he will definitely go down in history.
At this time, if he had knights protecting him, these loyal and brave knights could also be called "righteous men".
If one fails to do it properly, it will be recorded in history books.
During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, there were so many heroes whose stories have been passed down through the generations.
But she is a definite success story and is the idol that Youxiaer always thinks of.
The source of trouble: ...These are the people who are in charge of government affairs. Their hearts are not only dirty, but also extremely complicated.
"Since these heroes have come to help us, my Gu family cannot treat them unfairly!"
Gu Qingcheng directly defined these knights who were willing to escort her as "righteous men" and praised them highly.
"Bring a few jars of wine from the cellar, and set aside a scallop of beef to cook, and send it to the front yard along with the wine."
Gu Qingcheng originally wanted to make all the meat in her home into jerky and pickled meat.
But, now that the "helper" has come, she can't let them work for nothing.
Moreover, the grandparents and grandchildren were about to leave Jiankang, so they could not leave in a sad and miserable way, but in a grand and vigorous way! …
In the front yard, Gu Heng warmly greeted a dozen rangers and turned to wink at the steward beside him.
The steward understood and hurried back to the inner courtyard to pass on the message.
As a result, he didn't need to remind her at all, as Gu Qingcheng, who was less than six years old, handled everything.
"Wine! Copper-cauldron beef!"
The steward saw the hot soup bubbling in the huge bronze tripod, and the thinly sliced beef rolling in the hot soup.
The fragrance is very novel. The managers of the Gu family are basically family sons from several generations, and they have more experience than the average official family.
But he had never smelled anything like it.
"Is this a new idea that Sanniang came up with?"
The steward sniffed and asked with a smile.
“I guess so.”
Gu Qingcheng answered vaguely.
She referred to the method of the copper hot pot she ate in the novel world and instructed the cook to make the pot base.
In addition, she also learned that many medicinal herbs can be used as seasonings.
But these are just minor paths, nothing surprising.
"Sanniang is really capable!"
The steward exclaimed in admiration, and then ordered the servants to carry the huge bronze tripod to the front yard.
Gu Heng: ...What a fast speed! Sanniang must have made arrangements in advance! Alas, this child is so precocious, it seems that his appearance has been exchanged for his brain.
If possible, Gu Heng hopes that his granddaughter can be more balanced.
There is wine and a big pot of beef. Whether the host is welcoming or not can be seen from how wholeheartedly he or she entertains you.
Anyway, these rangers felt the enthusiasm of the Gu family.
This is the aristocratic Gu family, a top family that even the royal family doesn't take seriously, but they treat these lowly knights as guests of honor.
For a moment, the blood rushed to their brains, and the knights deeply experienced the saying "A gentleman will die for his friend".
They felt that their worthless lives were given to the Gu family.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Originally, there was still a little thought of seeking fame and reputation in my heart, but at this moment, all the messy thoughts were gone.
They had only one thought - even if it meant risking their lives, they had to protect the safety of You'an's ancestors and grandchildren.
Some knights drank a few bowls of wine and got a little drunk. They patted their chests and said, "Lord You'an, we don't even need to go to Lingnan! If you give the order, we will take you out of the Southern Dynasty even if it costs us our lives!"
Gu Heng: ...Haha, if I was afraid of being exiled, I would have left with my children and grandchildren long ago. Why would I have waited until now?
"No! The Holy Will cannot be violated."
Gu Heng looked serious and righteous.
The knights showed even more respect, and all stood up and bowed, "Lord You'an is indeed loyal, righteous and virtuous! How detestable that the treacherous officials are in power!"
Gu Heng did not discuss state affairs with Youxiaer, but continued to warmly invite everyone to eat and drink.
Because of this group of rangers, the Gu family gained another hour.
Zheng Mo and others didn't even come to urge them.
Zheng Mo knew these ruffians very well. They were now like a pile of dry firewood next to a fire.
The slightest spark would set them on fire! Zheng Mo just wanted to send Gu Heng to Lingnan smoothly, but he didn't want to get entangled with those desperate criminals.
Gu Qingcheng continued to be busy. She persuaded the doctors who had been employed by the family for a long time to leave their homes and careers and follow them to Lingnan.
It was soon afternoon and if we didn't leave, it would be dark.
Gu Heng knew his limits and was willing to do Zheng Mo a favor. Without waiting for Zheng Mo to urge him, he took the initiative to say, "It's getting late. I should leave now!"
Gu Qingcheng was also fully prepared, leaving only two maids, Luqi and Jiaowei, by her side.
Gu Heng was accompanied by an old servant and his grandson.
Most of the Gu family's troops escorted Gu Yi, Princess Jiangling and others to the Southern Dynasty.
The remaining small group hid in the dark, trying to escort secretly.
This time there were a dozen more rangers, who really helped the troops.
Moreover, the number of these knights increased as the Gu family's grandparents and grandchildren left the city.
People all like to join in the fun.
Those wanderers have nothing to do and just wander around.
Now that they see their “companions” doing big things, and this big thing does not have any threshold or difficulty, they are also actively joining in.
So, when Gu Qingcheng was sitting in the newly repaired ox cart and slowly leaving the capital, there was a long line of knights in different clothes on both sides of her ox cart.
Their number has far exceeded Zheng Mo's Qianniu Guards.
Zheng Mo: ...These damn rangers, don't they have anything else to do? Why do they have to come and join in the fun?
